Lisa Chapman

On 7 November 2005 Chapman made her decision to retire from swimming, and instead pursued coaching opportunities around the pool.

Chapman qualified for the women's 4×100 m freestyle relay, as a member of Team GB at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. She finished fourth in the 100 m freestyle from the Olympic trials in Sheffield, posting a relay entry time of 56.17. Teaming with Melanie Marshall, Karen Pickering and Kathryn Evans in the final, Chapman posted a lifetime best and a split of 55.49 to anchor the last 50 metres of the race. This helped the British team achieve sixth-place with a final time of 3:40.82, almost 5 seconds behind the world record set by the winning Australians.

Four months after competing in her first Olympics, Chapman earned her first career medal, a sterling silver, in the 100 m individual medley at the 2004 European Short Course Swimming Championships in Vienna, Austria (1:00.88).
